Cloth names, with description/what its made of

I would love someplace to go and be able to find all the current names of cloth available along with a description of it and what it is made of. Or is there someplace already on the net and I havent found it yet. I live over seas, temporary, and cloth is different here…names are different, which makes it hard for me to locate the exact cloth I want or at least something to use inplace of the one I want.

An example: What I know as RAWSILK, is called China silk, and then it can be of different textures. HELP ME PLEASE! You wouldn’t believe the looks I get when I do ask for certain cloth.
